Bath vibes
Unfortunately, Roma does not go for my little nose at all. Of course, it is not the fragrance's fault, but wearers very often determine how we perceive fragrances and also how we classify them. And that can last a lifetime. I was in the 6th or 7th grade when I first met Roma. German lessons with our new teacher. As soon as she entered the classroom, it took only seconds for the incredible sillage of flowers, patch, amber and animalics to spread throughout the room. And the intensity seemed to increase exponentially the longer the school hours lasted. You could hardly breathe. I don't know if she bathed in Roma at the time, but that was extreme. We are of course talking about the vintage version
At first we thought it was quite okay, but that changed quickly. Yes, I was not as lucky as colleague Meggi with my teachers. The ladies not only marinated themselves with Roma, they also had their own peculiarities and not too little of them. We were children and of course we were cheeky at high school. Whenever we tried a little joke with her, nothing bad of course, then the good one was missing for several days. Sometimes she was missing for a whole week just like that. Of course we were happy about the free hours, but that was also funny. The highlight came during a dictation. She dictated to us kids, who were only 12 years old, in which way the other colleagues constantly denounced her and made her life difficult. Finally, she dictated, "They claim I drank too much." Shock! First we get hit with the olfactory mace and then this? The walk to the guidance counsellor on our part followed, and from then on she was no longer seen.
This memory runs deep. And I'm sure some of my classmates from the past feel the same way. And the scent is just as deep. He is flowery, pompous, very very very sweet and has simply too much of everything for me. Maybe Roma and my teacher are to blame, which is why I still have a hard time with jasmine notes and the scent of lily of the valley today.
Objectively speaking, that's an insane perfume. And the scent has remained the same until today - albeit reformulated. But unfortunately not for me. Because there was another Roma carrier in my life. My first boyfriend's mother, and she didn't like me. Roma = bad vibes. Sorry to all lovers
